6. Background of Agriculture
 Agriculture began independently at least
20,000 BC
 China cultivated rice 11500 and 6,200 BC.
 Sheep, cattle domesticated 11,000, 8,500
BC Respectively.
 Agricultural techniques improved in the
middle ages.
 Irrigation, crop rotation, fertilizers
developed by British.

7. Definition of Agriculture
 Cultivation and breeding of animals, plants.
 Key of development of sedentary human civilization
 Study of agriculture is called agricultural science.
 Two types of agriculture –conventional & sustainable
 Conventional -altering environment, mono-cropping,
nonrenewable, diversity eliminated
 Sustainable- maintaining environment, poly-cropping,
insect-repellents, diversity maintained.

8. Objectives of Modern Technology
 Developing of cropping systems for food.
 Advancement of biotechnological innovations.
 Cope up with gradual increasing food demand.
 To minimize the production cost of crop.
 Ensuring environment friendly pesticide system.
 Develop the production and effectiveness of
fertilizer.
 Introduce and invent machines for easy agriculture.

14. Agriculture And Pest Control
 Inorganic pest control having 3 ways. Namely-
 Source elimination: steps to eliminate pests permanently.
 Naturalistic control: Used largely an unexplored field.
 Chemical control: Use of chemicals frequently.
 Organic pest control. Main ways are-
 Floating Row Covers, Pheromone Traps, Sticky Traps,
 Insecticidal Soap, Oil Sprays
14

15. Technology in Crop Harvesting
 The process of gathering a ripe crop.
 Reaping is the cutting of for harvest,
 Large mechanized farms use combine
Harvester
 Grain harvester used to harvest
Grains, seeds.
 Thrashers separates grain from
 Stalks and husks.

16. Technology in Agricultural
Products Preservation
 Pasteurization: Process for preservation of liquid food
 Vacuum Packing: Storing food in vacuum environment
 Bio Preservation: using controlled microbial or
antimicrobials
 Food Additives : inhibiting bacteria, fungi, mold growth
 Heating: increasing temperatures for killing
microorganisms.
 Cooling: preserving food slowing microorganisms and
enzymes.
16

17. Preservation of Product: Drying
 Inhibiting growing bacteria,
Yeast, mold removing water.
 Most cost-effective means of
preservation
 Much has been accomplished since the
1980s
 Improving gradually to reduce spoilage
 Practicing 12,000 B.C. In middle East,
Asia.

18. Preservation of Product:
Pickling
 Preserving food by anaerobic
fermentation or vinegar.
 Affects the food's texture
and flavor.
 Preserving pH must be 4.6 or
lower.
 Does not require to be completely sterile.
 Pickling began 4000 years ago in India

19. Preservation of Product:
Jams and Jellies
 Jelly is made fruit juice
holding shape.
 Jam is made from crushed/ground
fruit.
 preparations of fruits, vegetables,
sugar and pectin.
 Kept canned or sealed for long-term
storage
 Requires sterilize empty jars.

in Asia & Africa
 Increased income last 2
decades for technology.

27

28. Cont’d
It is suggested that
 Latest method of cultivation should be introduced
 Quality seeds should be ensured
 Machines must be brought in rage of farmer.
 Agricultural budged should be increased.
 Emphasize should be given in agricultural research.
 Environment friendly pesticide must be introduced.
